[Samba] Sync Linux - NT Domain passwords
Is there a way to syncronise the Windows Domain passwords with the linux account passwords? SAMBA passes authentication to an NT box password server = * Users have local accounts on the Linux box and get access to SAMBA shares depending on which group (linux) they belong to and if their authentication credentials were correct. I've tried synchronising their passwords so when they change their Windows password it changes their Linux password, but unfortunately that doesn't happen. unix password sync = Yes security = domain wins server = NT Box Is there any way to achieve this???

RE: [Samba] Samba getting user info from NT PDC
winbind seems to work OK, the only problem that I had with that was length of the groups (characters). eg. group DOMAIN+Everyone Trying to give a linux directory DOMAIN+Everyone rights ls -l displays only the first 8 characters DOMAIN+E of the group, if you have alot of groups it makes it difficult to figure out which one is which. I'm not sure if there is an easy way to fix that.

It is owned by the user jhall, and the group root. When I mount it, if I use dmask 0777, I get dr-xr-xr-x. If I use dmask 0700, I get dr-x--, and so on. The subdirectories have the proper dmask, and thus are writeable. The shared directory on my Win XP Pro box is SharedDocs, and jhall has full permissions in this directory. Below is an example of my shell commands and subsequent output: [root@laptop jhall]# ls -l /home ##See that the dir samba is writable by jhall drwx-- 37 jhall users 4096 Nov 27 19:42 jhall drwx-- 2 jhall users 4096 Nov 27 11:09 samba drwx-- 21 stephie stephie 4096 Nov 27 14:58 stephie ##This is how I mount the share [root@laptop jhall]# mount -t smbfs -o user=jhall,uid=jhall,gid=root,dmask=0700,fmask=0777 //desktop/SharedDocs /home/samba Password: [root@laptop jhall]# ls -l /home ##Now it is mounted, and I can read and execute everything that ##is on my shared windows directory, but can only write things that ##are in a subdirectory, because they have the proper dmask of 0700 ##I am logged in as jhall when I try to write to the directory. drwx-- 37 jhall users 4096 Nov 27 19:42 jhall dr-x-- 1 jhall root 4096 Nov 24 11:54 samba drwx-- 21 stephie stephie 4096 Nov 27 14:58 stephie [root@laptop jhall]# smbumount /home/samba ##I unmount the directory [root@laptop jhall]# ls -l /home ##And again have write permission drwx-- 37 jhall users 4096 Nov 27 19:42 jhall drwx-- 2 jhall users 4096 Nov 27 11:09 samba drwx-- 21 stephie stephie 4096 Nov 27 14:58 stephie I hope that this is enough information.

[Samba] Another winbind question (hopefully easy one)
I setup SAMBA to use winbind to authenticate of a WinNT PDC In the smb.conf I have a line template homedir = /home/winnt/%U which is file I also use the pam module to create directories for new users pam_mkhomedir.so skel=/etc/sambaskel umask=0077 which is fine again. My problem is that I can't tell or how do I tell pam_mkhomedir to create the directories in /home/winnt/user instead it creates them in /home/user Any ideas?

[Samba] Winbind help
Hi everyone, I've been trying to use winbind in order to connect to WinNT PDC for authenticating user and also mapping user/group ids. We are using RH 7.3 Samba 2.2.3a I've followed the instruction provided in the document Unified Logons between WindowsNT and UNIX using Winbind We only want to authenticate SAMBA users so I've skipped the /etc/pam.d/* changes. This is the impertant entries of my smb.conf file workgroup = groupserv_melb netbios name = linux-smb netbios aliases = linux-test winbind separator = + winbind uid = 1-2 winbind gid = 1-2 winbind enum users = yes winbind enum groups = yes template homedir = /home/winnt/%D/%U template shell = /bin/bash password server = 138.79.130.20 encrypt passwords = yes smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd unix password sync = Yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /home/winnt/%D/%U -s /bin/false -M %U The domain has been joined using smbpasswd Here are my questions: Everytime I enable domain logons on SAMBA and try the wbinfo -t I get Bad secret When the domain logons is disabled then the secret is good. if I type wbinfo -u I get all the domain users not a problem the same with the wbinfo -g for groups. Using the add user script = parameter trying to access the domain using smbclient eg. smbclient //linux-smb/homes -W groupserv_melb -I 138.79.161.225 -U tst-steve The home directory doesn't get created properly. The %D option is EMPTY. The user gets created in passwd/group/shadow but the HOME directory DOESN'T?? I get something like tst-steve:x:10058:10058::/home/winnt//tst-steve:/bin/false in the passwd file (with 2 // instead of the DOMAIN Name). Also winbindd log file complains about port 445 on the PDC [2002/09/30 16:02:24, 2] lib/util_sock.c:open_socket_out(858) error connecting to 138.79.130.20:445 (Connection refused) What does that port do? So what is the best way to do it if I want to authenticate the users from the WindowsNT PDC and also give them access to SAMBA shares using the Windows NT permissions? Thanks in advance. -- Steve Simeonidis Network Engineer, Spherion Education Spherion Group Ltd 1st Floor, 493 St. Kilda Rd, Melbourne VIC 3004, Australia Phone: +61 3 9243 2382Fax:+61 3 9820 2010 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The information contained in this email and any attachments to it: (a) may be confidential and if you are not the intended recipient, any interference with, use, disclosure or copying of this material is unauthorised and prohibited; and (b) may contain personal information of the recipient and/or the sender as defined under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).
